Coinbase has become the first U.S.-based crypto exchange to receive a MiCA license from Luxembourg, allowing it to operate across all 30 countries in the European Economic Area. This move, which shifts its EU hub from Ireland to Luxembourg, positions Coinbase ahead of rivals like Gemini in the race for full European regulatory approval.
